Engineering Design and Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire Version 4.0
GUANGMING ZHANG Director, Advanced Design and Manufacturing Laboratory
Department of Mechanical Engineering and the Institute for Systems Research
The University of Maryland @ College Park
This book presents a comprehensive treatment of
engineering design with focus on solutions that are based on information
technology. With capabilities of
computers expanding at an unthinkable pace, the importance of using advanced
computer-aided design (CAD) systems in engineering design must be emphasized.
Pro/ENGINEER
, a leading CAD system, is described to demonstrate the role of the
computer in assisting engineers in the design process.
The book is written as an introductory textbook for undergraduate
students in engineering in all specialty areas (e.g., mechanical, aerospace,
civil, electrical, chemical, bioengineering, industrial, materials, and fire
protection engineering). The book
should also be useful as a reference and a guide to designers engaged in the
product development.
The book is organized into 10 chapters. The
first three chapters provide a fundamental coverage of engineering design.
They stress the need to follow national and international standards
related to engineering graphics, dimensioning, and tolerances.
Representative examples are provided to demonstrate industrial
applications. A systematic description of Pro/ENGINEER is presented in
Chapters 4 through 9. Feature-based
solid modeling, preparation of engineering drawings, concepts of virtual
assembly, animation and mechanism are covered in these chapters.
Applications of finite element analysis, both structural and thermal, and
applications of numerically controlled machining are presented in Chapter 10.
This concluding chapter demonstrates the integration of a CAD system, an
engineering analysis tool, and a computer-aided manufacturing system under the
Pro/ENGINEER design environment. The material covered in this book is an outgrowth of several design and manufacturing courses taught by the author at the University of Maryland at College Park. The first edition was published in 1998. This book has been widely used as a class textbook and reference in engineering design. To address the evolution of the Pro/ENGINEER design system, several editions have been published. This edition is for students and designers, who are using Pro/ENGINEER WildFire, Version 4.0, a new release of the Pro/ENGINEER design system in 2008. In this edition (Version 4.0), new content has been added, including creations of annotation and analytical features, surface modeling, sketcher palette, welding structures, dynamic simulation and thermal analysis.
